One of my many LOVES...



I have many loves in life, but I would have to say that one of my biggest loves is...well, if you know me, you may have guessed it by now...BROADWAY. Yes, I am a Broadway, theatre, music, geek, nerd, dork...whatever you want to call it. But I am NOT ashamed! I just spent about a hour (or two) surfing the Broadway.com site. Pretty exciting stuff going on. Phantom the sequal, VERY mixed feelings, Hugh Jackman and Daniel Radcliffe in a show about two police officers, what more could you want?! Some original American shows emerging, "Finnians Rainbow", "Next to Normal", and then I think the one that I am most excited about and REALLY hope I get to see is "Ragtime the Musical". If you haven't heard of it, HEAR OF IT! It's incredible. I just found out that it's a novel, so I think I'm going to buy it. I thought that now would be a good time to put in black and white ALL the broadways I've seen...just for fun, I've never done it before, and although it may magnify my Broadway nerdiness, for all you who are like me, it just may make you jealous! ha ha

Ps. I'm pretty much putting these in approx. order of when I saw them, and where I saw them...starting when I was about 10 until now. So they are not in order of my fav. to least fav....Phantom is NOT my fav. Sorry. Oh and I know that Cirque is not considered Broadway...
  • Phantom of the Opera 2x LA
  • Aida LA
  • Les Miserables LA
  • Lion King LA
  • Macbeth LA
  • Into the Woods LA
  • Wicked NY 3x
  • Beauty and the Beast NY
  • Sweet Charity NY
  • Chitty Chitty Bang Bang NY
  • Peter Pan CT
  • Varekai NJ
  • BRKLYN NY 2x
  • Movin' Out NY
  • KA LV
I hope that I can add more to the list sometime soon. I'm planning another trip to NY for next Christmas, fingers crossed, and I hope to add Ragtime, Radio City Christmas Spectacular, and maybe Mary Poppins. I HEART Broadway!
